Default Anyone running AFR 205's with the SS HT cam?

I'd love to see if anyone is running this combo, and if so, what kind of numbers your putting down. I would think this combo would be close to 450rwhp with a ton of torque down low. Please post up if you've got it or know someone who does.

I'm collecting the parts for a h/c swap and will be running a cam very similar to it on an EPS grind, but with about 2 deg. more duration on both sides and from EPS. If I could just find some decent AFR 205's, I'll about be there...

I had a set, but traded them, and a custom ground Ed Curtis cam for a set of Fikse wheels.

If you still didn't buy the heads .. just FYI no more AFR 205 .. the new art is AFR 210

I think AFR heads work best with AFR cams .. on M6 car with afr 224/228 the average dyno result is 440 ~ 450 rwhp with nice tq curve

Yeah, I'm aware of that, but will likley try to find a sef of AFR 205's used. That's what I did before. Ed Curtis is the guy behind the SS HT cam and he knows his ****, especially with AFR heads. I'd love to get the SS HT, but on a 110 LSA.

Probably not. Maybe down the road I would. I'm also thinking about a set of the Trick Flow 220 as cast heads. Could get a brand new set of them for the same price as a used set of 205's.

This is with ok header/cats Cali 91 gas and a safe tune on a load bearing dyno. Will be getting a dyno from a second place to see what it will do. But it runs like a rapped ape!

Thanks for the post. Pretty good numbers. I see that was a Cam Motion grind. Heard good things about them.

better gas, some 1 7/8 kooks or American Racing headers, more aggressive tune and a dyno jet probably closer to 470-480.

you will love the cam with either sets of heads. I like the as cast cause they are almost a budget price. They can also be ran through the 235cc cnc port I heard if later on you go bigger cubes. But 205 afr's are right there with the best of them! Cant go wrong either way.

I was the one that did the trade with rise of phoenix , it was 205 afr heads 62cc and the custom ed curtis cam. Just got the car done made 442 to the wheels with 30 pound injectors , stock ls6 intake , hooker long tubes, hooker exhaust, on a pretty much basic tune. with fast intake, 90/90, pulley , merge should make around 495 i hope

What's up Greg? How was the install? Sound like it all went well. I bet if more time is spent on the tune, you'll be right around 450 or more. A FAST intake and TB will definatley help. What size head gaskets did you use? Also, how was the PTV clearance?

I wouldn't get stuck on trying to hit a number. 480 is not easy to hit with a 346 unless everything is geared to work together. most were thinking mine would do closer to 470whp but it didnt. Lots of variables come into play. But my cars runs like a rapped ape and is snappy and has great torque so i am happy for now. I will re dyno on a dyno jet if i want to see bigger numbers.

450-460 with a mild cam is going to be a fun *** car!!!

What type of dyno was that on Greg? Also, you got an idle video of it. I'm glad we did the trade, but I bet I'll be regreting it once I hear that beast lope.
